Europe

From Latin Europa, from Ancient Greek Εὐρώπη (Eurṓpē), of uncertain origin, but either from:

• Ancient Greek εὐρύς (eurús) + ὄψ (óps), literally meaning "wide face" (as a description of the beauty of the mythical Europa) or "broad eye" (metaphorically meaning something like "as far as the eye can see")
• Semitic origin, such as:
  • Akkadian 𒌓𒋙 (erebu, “to set, occident, west”),
  • Phoenician 𐤏𐤓𐤁‎ (ʿereb, “evening”).
  • Aramaic ערובה‎ (ʿrōbā, “sunset, Sabbath eve”),
  • Hebrew בֶּן‑עֲרֻבָּה‎ (ben‑aruboh, “hostages”) and מַעֲרָב (ma‑ārov, "occident, west"),
  • Classical Syriac ܥܪܘܒܐ‎ (aruba, “hostages”) and ܡܥܪܒܐ (ma‑arba, "occident, west"),
  • Arabic غَرْب‎ (gharb, “occident, west”),
